ELECTRONIC CODE LOCK SYSTEM

PARUL CHOUHAN parulchouhan1990@gmail.com ABSTRACT:INTRODUCTION:A 4x3 matrix keypad and a 16x2 LCD have been used here. Keypad and LCD are very commonly used input & output devices, respectively. A four digit predefined password needs to be specified the user. This password is stored in the system.While unlocking, if the entered password from keypad matches with the stored password, then the lock opens and a message is displayed on LCD. Also an output pin is made high to be used for further purpose. The connections in the circuit are as following: port P2 of microcontroller AT89C51 is used as data input port which is connected to data pins (7-14) of LCD. P1^0, P1^1 and P1^2 pins of microcontroller are connected to control pins RS, RW and EN of LCD. Port P0 is used to take input from keypad. P0^7 has been used as lock output pin of controller. As the program starts, string Enter Password is displayed on LCD. The keypad is scanned for pressed digits one by one. Every time, row and column of the key pressed is detected and a * is displayed on LCD corresponding to the entered number. After the four digits are entered, the user is prompted to Confirm Password and again the input is taken through LCD. If the passwords do not match, a message is displayed to indicate Wrong Password; otherwise the user is prompted to unlock the device. To unlock, user needs to Enter Password through keypad. Again the keypad is scanned for pressed keys and corresponding digits are identified. The passkey is displayed as **** on the LCD screen. After the four digits are entered, they are compared with the pre-set password. If all the four digits match with set password, LCD displays Lock Open and the lock output pin goes high. If the security code is wrong, Wrong Password is sent to be displayed on LCD. The system gets locked if more than three attempts are made with wrong password to open the electronic lock. The system needs to be reset in such a case.

ADVANTAGE:1.It is very simple in construction and so dependable. 2.It weight is less and that for case it can be used in any remote place and easily bearable. 3.It is perfect for locking that documents which are used all time because it is easy to operate. 4.We can easily change the combination password as we like best at any time on our demand.

5.Convenience, requiring no keys, cards or

tokens which can become lost or stolen. APPLICATION: hotel room door locks residential housing office buildings.

DISADVANTAGE:The digital safe locks work on batteries that have to be replaced very often. The changing process may be a bit frustrating from the users point of view whereas in the case of a combination lock, the batteries are located only outside the system and it doesnt take more than a couple of minutes to replace them. Another disadvantage of the digital lock over the combination dial up lock is that, the former is more prone to water damages. The digital programming will get affected instantly if water is spilt on any of the electronic components of the digital safe lock.
